The Café of Infinite Doors

In a mythical Scotland of long ago, a goddess’s mortal surrogate dies in childbirth and leaves behind a vindictive firstborn daughter who seethes in the shadow of her new divine sister, leading to a violent clash that leaves both sisters imprisoned in separate worlds.
     Millennia later in San Francisco, sheltered, isolated twenty-three-year-old Marceline is desperate for a job, longing for a temporary escape from her controlling, toxic husband, Baxter. One evening, a magical café appears after a nasty fight. Run by a quirky, mysteriously feathered woman named Lucretia, her partner, Kilda, and a gentle Tahitian man named Sylvan, the café holds the safety, comfort, and companionship Marceline has craved. Upon learning that the café’s door is a protected portal that opens to those in need, she joins the cafe’s staff behind Baxter's back.
     Meanwhile, elsewhere in San Francisco is another supernatural haunt: a sinister, nightmare-fueled tavern run by the Bartender—a sadistic woman who feeds on the misery of her customers. The Bartender has been biding her time, waiting for the day she’ll be able to break the curse that entrapped her in the tavern centuries ago. And when one of her most miserable longtime customers drags himself in, furious that his meek, devoted wife has been lying to him about being home all day and suspicious about a golden feather she’s been keeping under her pillow, the Bartender realizes her day has finally come . . .
